MORE INFO
Join us as the garden hosts the official Adelaide Fringe Welcome Ceremony to mark the imminent opening of the 2023 festival.
As part of this family-friendly cultural event, you'll hear from Aboriginal and Torres Strait Island Elders and leaders, as they share their story of connection to Country and participate in a smoking ceremony, to acknowledge the ancestors and pay respect to the land and waters on which we gather.
Gather your friends, family and a picnic rug on the luscious Conifer Lawn for a beautiful sunset ceremony involving multiple locally based First Nations groups, including:
Michael (Mickey) 'Kumatpi Marrutya' O'Brien, Uncle Major (Moogy) Sumner, Katrina 'Karlapina' Power, Uncle Eddie Peters, Dave and Kyle Booth, Robert Taylor, Taylor Power-Smith and Ashum Owen.
Important information:
Please bring a picnic rug or low chair if you wish. There is accessible seating on the concrete paved areas. Please note this is not a performance, it is a cultural ceremony, and we ask you to please be respectful at all times.
